Daphnis et Chloé- Complete Ballet

Album by Maurice Ravel & Ernest Ansermet & Orchestre de la Suisse Romande & Motet Choir of Geneva & Jacques Horneffer

Daphnis et Chloé is the complete ballet by French composer Maurice Ravel, composed between 1909 and 1912 and first performed in 1912. The score is an expansive orchestral work grounded in Impressionist harmony and modal melodies, featuring luminous orchestral textures, large-scale forces including chorus, and it occupies a central place in Ravel's output and in early 20th-century ballet repertoire.
